Hiya
Hoping you can help. I’ve got an Ecler Nuo 4.0 and it’s great. Really love playing with it. It’s got a send/return loop and I tried to integrate a Pioneer RMX-500 FX unit, but I’m getting confused. There’s an aux send potentiometer for each channel which sends that channel to the FX, but then there’s also what appears to be a master send potentiometer and then also a return potentiometer. It’s these last two that are confusing me. Is the ‘master’ one a mix send? I don’t know that the return one does at all! I sold the unit because, unless you run it fully wet, the delay in the signal path causes annoying phasing. I’m considering getting another one, as I can probably get used to it and learn how to use it properly, but I don’t know how the mixer works properly. I’ve read the manual, but it is vague on this point! Thanks all |

Master send is what varies the TOTAL auxillary send level. This is how much overall aux signal is sent to the effects processor. Set this to zero for example and no send signal will be sent to the EFX processor, irrespective of the individual channel aux send levels. Effects return control varies how much of the signal from the EFX processor is returned back into the mixers audio path.
Master output level is what controls the level to your amplifier from your mixer. This control comes after you have mixed all inputs and auxillary return.. Hope this makes sense. The mixer manual should show a signal flow diagram which should make things clearer if necessary.
